Study summary

The investigators are registering all HD patients at recruited hospitals and developing a HD database in China. Patients will be follow-up every 3 months, and both baseline and follow-up information will be entered into the registration system. The patient survival, technical survival, patency rate of access, quality of life and residual renal function for HD patients will be compared using the HD database.

Read the detailed description

The investigators are registering all end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients receiving hemodialysis (HD) treatment, and developing a HD database in China. Patients' demographic characteristics (including age, gender, height, weight, BMI, smoking, drinking, and education), clinical characteristics (including systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, primary cause of ESRD, and lab measurements of serum, urine, and access patency), complications, drug information and scores of quality of life at the baseline will be collected. Patients will be follow-up every 3 month, the demographic and clinical characteristics, complications and drug information of patients will be collected at each visit. The investigators also record the outcome at each visit, such as mortality (including all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality), technical survival, kidney transplantation, transfer to peritoneal dialysis, hospitalization, access failure,etc. The patient survival, technical survival, patency rate of access, quality of life and residual renal function for HD patients will be compared using the HD database.

The record gives a start of Dec 2013, a primary completion of Dec 2029 and a completion of Dec 2029. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 15, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
